Hey Gallery Aquatica, on the Vectra L2 pump, what connections did you use to connect that ribbed return pipe? I'm struggling to make it work! I also have a Cade 2100.
Good question, we had great debate over this one. In the end we decided on the pros so we could have our peak light a little less blue with the intention of showing fish colours better. I use the blues for most coral systems we install but sometimes customers find them too blue. Cam
Hi cam! What temps do you guys in Australia run your aquariums at? I see you run chillers on alot of the tanks you review and set up. Do you run them a little hotter in summer?
We usually set the chillers to 25 degrees Celsius. I don’t change the temp seasonally but some people do raise it to 26 in the summer to save on chilling costs mainly. Cam
Hi Cam. Did you have the remove all of the glass in the filter sock section to fit the reefmat? I've seen your install on the 1200 but would really like to fit it where you have it. Does it take up the refugium space?
In this CADE 2100 we removed the filter socks but not the glass baffle. The Reef mat sits in the refugium which isn’t being used for macroalgae. We are installing a Reef Mat in a CADE 2100 tomorrow that has a functional refugium and we plan to remove the socks and the glass baffle to give more space. Cam
Hi Cam. Beautiful build. I am getting a CADE 1500 and have questions re: UV size and hookup. Please keep in mind that this is my first saltwater and these might be really silly questions. I am thinking of getting an Aqua Ultraviolet Classic 57 Watt UV for it and running both the return and UV off SICCE Syncra SDC 7.0 Water Pump. First question, will the pump be big enough? It is rated for 800-1900gph and this is a 169 total gallon tank. The UV light is rated for minimum of 1066gph flow rate. Second question is about the hookup. How does the CADE's manifold gets used? Does it feed the input for UV? And then where does the UV's output goes to? Into the sump? If so, what the best place? Thanks a lot, Alex
The CADEs manifold has 3 x 16mm hose tail (3/4 inch?). You need to get adapters to the UV so you can run 16mm hose. We sell them for the UV Twist 57 watt which probably has the same fittings. I run from the manifold, to the UV and back to the sump. The Sicce should be more than enough flow, as you probably don’t want so much flow through the UV. I’d put more like 250 GPH through it. Cam
I finally got the answer (Rory sources our plumbing gear). They come from “Water Equip” in Coopers Plain, Brisbane. It’s funny you ask because the availability of those specific fittings was one of my greatest concerns for the whole build. We are going to do an episode specifically on this water changer soon. Cam
Hi cam How do you find the return plumbing on the Cade I found on my 1200 being 25din that it’s very limiting I run an L2 and I’m using 2 ports 1 of chiller 1 for reactor I found that even on 100% the water coming out of the return into the tank is rather restricted I have an apex and installed a flow meter after the manifold and I found I’m barely getting 2000LT per hour That’s with L2 at 100% I’m fairly sure the 2100 has the same size plumbing I have flow meters on the chiller and reactor and the chiller gets 6 and the reactor gets 500 I can not push any more water to the tank the plumbing just won’t do it
This tank is the same manifold use (DT return and 2 manifold points feeding chiller and UV) running a Vectra L2. I’ve never measured the water coming up to the DT but I’m sure it’s way more than 2000. I’d guess it was at least 6000-9000 LPH considering it comes out like a fire hose. I’ve never felt it was an inadequate flow to the DT but I might try putting a flow meter on it one day and seeing the stats more accurately. Cam

That’s great to hear😊 Cam
@@GalleryAquaticaTV i send from email à photo with my aquarium
Very beautiful display 👌🏻
Can't wait for future updates
We’ll be back at this tank soon. There’s fish in it now and it’s coming along nicely. Cam
@Gallery Aquatica TV do yall plan on setting up and/or reviewing the Cade Frag series tanks? Specifically the white one??
Dream set up. Love the tech choices and so well thought out. Keen to see the water change in action.
We’ll do a close look at the waterchanger. I’m really happy with how it turned out. Cam
Love it
Encore une très belle vidéo et merci !!!🙏🙏🙏
We will be back at this tank very soon😊
@@GalleryAquaticaTV je suis de retour 🙏🙏🙏
Awesome 😍
A really big boy incredible aquarium, greetings from Italy.
Greetings! Thanks for watching, we’ll have more episodes on this big boy soon😉 Cam
This is a Great looking build thanks Cam showing and explaining each piece of equipment looking forward to the next video 👍🍻🇺🇸
Thanks😊 It won’t be too long before we’re back at this tank. Cam
A very nice looking set up Cam. I like the fit & finish of the tank & stand. Thanks for the tour of the equipment as well. 👌
No worries! We’ll be back at this tank soon to show the livestock we’ve added. Cam
The pH and salinity displays are pretty nice
Yeah, it wasn’t easy to do but we’ll worth the effort. Cam
@@GalleryAquaticaTV how did you attach the display?
Hey Gallery Aquatica, on the Vectra L2 pump, what connections did you use to connect that ribbed return pipe? I'm struggling to make it work! I also have a Cade 2100.
Looks great! Why did you go for the pro vs the blue ecotech lights?
Good question, we had great debate over this one. In the end we decided on the pros so we could have our peak light a little less blue with the intention of showing fish colours better. I use the blues for most coral systems we install but sometimes customers find them too blue. Cam
Can the dry side be flipped? Where the cable falls down instead of up? It would make the tank look cleaner with it following the cabinet.
It can be, however you lose the safety function which means the dry side might break if it falls. Cam
The power bricks, if you turn them up on the short side they can/will dissipate more heat.
Great tip😊

Hi Cam any chance you could do a vid on the KH Keeper
Yes definitely. We installed one at a recent CADE installation so I’ll do it on that, or on the one I’ll put on the SPS Mothership. Cam
How did you manage to get the reef factory displays in the door?
I scratched the black paint off the inside of the doors to match the Reef Factory displays and used tape to hold the displays in place. Cam
Awesome thanks it looks great, I might have to try this! 👍🏽
where do you get those fittings to convert the kamoer auto water change hose down to john guest fittings??

It’s funny you ask because the availability of those specific fittings was one of my greatest concerns for the whole build. We are going to do an episode specifically on this water changer soon. Cam
Hi cam
How do you find the return plumbing on the Cade
I found on my 1200 being 25din that it’s very limiting
I run an L2 and I’m using 2 ports 1 of chiller 1 for reactor
I found that even on 100% the water coming out of the return into the tank is rather restricted
I have an apex and installed a flow meter after the manifold and I found I’m barely getting 2000LT per hour
That’s with L2 at 100%
I’m fairly sure the 2100 has the same size plumbing
I have flow meters on the chiller and reactor and the chiller gets 6 and the reactor gets 500
I can not push any more water to the tank the plumbing just won’t do it
This tank is the same manifold use (DT return and 2 manifold points feeding chiller and UV) running a Vectra L2. I’ve never measured the water coming up to the DT but I’m sure it’s way more than 2000. I’d guess it was at least 6000-9000 LPH considering it comes out like a fire hose.

Turn off the light in the KH Keeper. You wil geth algae in the Glas 😎😉
Thanks for the tip. We didn’t have it calibrated at the time of filming, but now it is calibrated I’ll take this advice. Cam
that bow on the back piece of glass scares the crap out of me :/
I think you need another light
Lol, I don’t think another would fit😂
